Does furniture made from Indonesian mahogany contribute to deforestation in Indonesia?

Q. The Bobs Jamestown bedroom set (http://www.mybobs.com/Jamestown.aspx) is apparently made from Indonesian Mahogany. I have read in a couple websites that illegal logging is a growing problem in Indonesia. Does buying furniture like this contribute to the problem?

A. Simply put, yes. It doesn't matter if it is legally imported or not, this trade makes a market for the illegally imported items.
